Apple released visionOS 27 as part of its annual software update cycle. The operating system introduces several interface changes and AI features for spatial computing devices.
New features include gaze-reactive Siri, curved virtual windows, and automatic Safari tab grouping for spatial computing devices.
The update targets Apple's mixed reality hardware ecosystem. Siri gains a pinnable visualization that reacts to user gaze for interaction.
New Dwell Control allows users to confirm selections by glancing at markers on the screen. Certain application interfaces now feature curved virtual displays instead of traditional flat screens. Safari now groups tabs automatically based on content similarity.
Image Playground adds Extend, Enhance, and Reframe tools for spatial photo editing. Panoramas can convert into interactive 3D scenes within supported apps.
Industry sources indicate Apple intends to release artificial intelligence-powered smart eyewear in the coming months. The company is laying groundwork through software updates that prepare hardware platforms for new interaction models.
The visionOS 27 update ships as a standard annual release without major pricing changes or regional restrictions. Users can install the update on compatible Apple spatial computing devices.
